Thanks to Trump, China got better, America go sicker

  American Pulitzer Prize winner Thomas L.Friedman a column in the New York Times

When I watched Trump and Biden's first presidential debate, there was a sudden illusion in my mind: the Chinese must have gathered to watch the debate, and whenever Trump said something unreliable, The Chinese laughed and drank a whisky. In less than half an hour, the Chinese who watched the debate were drunk.

How could this not be possible? Chinese see something they have never seen before —— an incoherent u.s. president, constantly out of control in the camera antics. Trump has shown a clear picture of his eagerness to stay in office, as his failure to re-election could mean prosecution, humiliation, and liquidation.

No wonder the Chinese gloat! An epidemic that began in Wuhan and has been contained in China is still raging among the American population. This is not what we think!

The new crown outbreak should have been China's "Chernobyl" incident, but eventually became the Western countries "Waterloo ". That's what John Mickerswat and Adrian Woodridge put forward in their new book Alert: Why the epidemic exposes Western weaknesses and how to fix it.

According to Johns Hopkins University ,65.74 of every 100000 people in the United States die from the new crown virus, with a total of about 216000 so far. Only 0.34 of every 100,000 people in China died of the new coronavirus, a total of 4750. You can doubt China's data, but even if China's death figures double, China still does much better than the United States in protecting its people.

In fact, at the beginning of this month, when Trump was infected with the new crown virus, the White House became a super-transmission place, and millions of Americans dared not send their children to school, China's local transmission was almost zero. Hundreds of millions of Chinese poured into bus stations, railway stations and airports to celebrate National Day holidays all over the country.

 At the same time, the renminbi has shown unprecedented strength. October 1, bloomberg reported ," the yuan after 12 years of the best quarter, is being a haven of global concern ." China's exports and imports soared in september.

( Cnmoulding Note: RMB appreciation is unfavorable to Chinese foreign trade enterprises, including precision mould and automotive precision injection molding.)

This good situation of economic development should have appeared in the United States!

 Michael twat (Micklethwait), editor-in-chief of bloomberg news agency (Bloomberg News), told me :" we think, relatively speaking, the western government peaked in the 1960s, when the united states was busy sending people to the moon and the chinese were struggling with food and clothing ." Plus ," that was the last time three-quarters of Americans trusted their government ."

 But today we're headed for "a full reversal of history, starting 500 years ago, when china was equally well ahead —— accounting for a quarter of the world's economy, and when the chinese government was by far the most mature ," adds the economist's political editor, woodridge. We forget China's former glory, but China does not. This may be a crucial year for Asia to regain its lead 500 years ago, unless the West awakens ."

 In the face of the current epidemic, if the United States really wants to recover, it needs to develop a national plan to deal with the new crown epidemic. China did well: it deployed all the tools of its authoritarian surveillance system to track people infected with coronavirus and control its spread. Some facial recognition techniques in China are very good. You don't even have to take off your mask and scan your eyes and nose.

 The United States can not adopt this strategy, the United States government system is different from China. But our democratic system has failed to take effective measures to achieve the same epidemic control effect as China.

 This is frustrating!

 America confronted some countries in modern history —— Japan and Germany in World War II, Korea and Soviet Union in Cold War. At the beginning of the war, they always have an advantage: they can command their society to do things from top to bottom through a strong government system. But in the long run, the United States always wins, because although we are usually unprepared for war and start slowly, we always adapt quickly and unite to win the final victory.

 But this time, the United States failed to work together to meet the challenges of the new crown epidemic.

 On March 28 this year, in the face of the spread of the new crown epidemic in the United States, Trump announced that "our country is fighting an invisible enemy ", and he vowed to summon" all the strength of the American nation "to defeat it. But he didn't do it. With the exception of health workers, public solidarity and wartime willingness to sacrifice rarely or quickly disappeared.

 Why? And that's not because democracies do n' t have the capacity to manage the epidemic effectively —— South Korea, Japan and New Zealand are doing much better than we are.

 For this reason, the United States has largely a unique culture of individualism, a highly decentralized place-state-federal power-sharing systems, fragile public health systems, divided politics, and Republicans who have been working to weaken Washington's government; while many Americans are keen to get news from social networks, the spread of social media magnifies conspiracy theories and undermines truth and trust.

 Most of all, we now have a president whose political strategy for re-election is to divide us, destroy trust, destroy the truth, and declare any news that is not in line with his goals "false ". The lack of trust in the truth and scientific control of the epidemic has led to the situation in the United States today.

 The last outbreak in the United States was in 1918, when many Americans didn't mind wearing masks —— You go to the previous photos to know —— because American leaders at that time asked people to do so and set an example. But this time, the president did not use facts as a basis for American trust, but also ignored the threat of the virus and laughed at those wearing masks. So, many Americans don't trust him.

 As a result, in a democracy like ours, it is irrational to discuss how to deal with the new crown epidemic.

Today's troubles are not solved by a new vaccine. And we have lost trust in each other and in our Government, our basic understanding of the truth —— all of which are necessary for a common response to the public health crisis. This trust we have in previous wars, but today in the face of the new crown epidemic is gone. I believe Joe Biden is nominated by the Democratic Party and is likely to win because a large number of Americans intuitively believe that we are disgusted by the status quo of disunity, and Biden may begin to reverse it. Biden's victory was not enough to restore America to a healthy state politically and practically, but it was necessary. At the same time, I hope that Russia, China and other countries, do not take the opportunity to attack us now, the United States is no longer the former United States.

The new coronavirus was found again in China

 Qingdao reported 12 cases of positive ,11 holidays received more than 4 million tourists from where?

Blue map since January 28 this year released epidemic map, and on the basis of big data regularly launched epidemic trend analysis.

The global epidemic continued to accelerate this week, with a total of 2.286 million infections a week, up 12 percent from last week, with India continuing to be the world's first new week, the United States remaining high, and Europe's second wave of outbreaks ferocious.

In mainland China, zero new diagnoses were broken, Qingdao reported 3 new crown positive patients on the 11th ,9 positive patients in the early hours of the 12th, and Hong Kong added 69 cases a week, up 43 percent from the previous week, stepping into the fourth wave of the epidemic.

As temperatures in the northern hemisphere cool and autumn and winter fall, new cases continue to innovate in many European countries. In Asia, outbreaks in India, Nepal and other countries are worrying, while new cases in the United States have been hovering high on a single day. Yang Gonghuan, former deputy director of the China CDC, said in an interview with reporters on the 11th that the rebound of the new crown epidemic in autumn and winter has begun, and the second wave of the epidemic has begun. However, she also believes that as human experience with the new crown epidemic continues to accumulate, mortality has been declining, so don't worry as much as the first wave of the epidemic occurred.

First, domestic epidemic dynamics: Qingdao added 6 cases of diagnosis ,6 cases of asymptomatic infection Qingdao late night notification :6 cases of diagnosis ,6 cases of asymptomatic infection!

 On October 11, the Qingdao Health and Health Commission announced that three new cases of asymptomatic infection with coronavirus pneumonia were added in Qingdao, of which 2 were found by hospitals in nucleic acid detection of common patients and 1 in immediate nucleic acid detection of close contacts.

 It is worth noting that these three asymptomatic infected persons are associated with the city chest hospital, the specific source of infection is under further investigation, and one case is a taxi driver, self-described "driving has been wearing a mask, do not talk to passengers ".

 Some independent areas of the city chest hospital are responsible for the treatment of overseas imported new crown virus infection, the spread of the epidemic caused official and public vigilance.

 Subsequently, Qingdao organized a large-scale flow survey and classification test, and focused on the monitoring of close contacts and related personnel of the city chest hospital as high risk population.

This morning, the Qingdao Health and Health Commission announced the latest progress:

 A total of 377 patients and accompanying personnel were found in close contact and all hospital patients in the city chest hospital, including 377 people

 New nucleic acid test results were positive for 9 people (including 8 patients in hospital and escort staff ,1 patient's family). As determined by the Panel, Among them ,4 cases were confirmed and 5 cases were asymptomatic infected. As at 2300 hours on 11 October, Six confirmed cases were found in Qingdao, Among them ,2 cases were released on October 11, an asymptomatic infected person Jiang Xime (female), Han Xime returned; Six cases of asymptomatic infection. So far, All confirmed cases and asymptomatic infected persons were highly correlated with the city chest hospital. 76 close contacts have been identified, Out of 34, Negative; 810 general contacts, The results were 485, All negative. Investigation of the city's medical institutions staff, new inpatients and escort staff of 143893 people, Complete sampling, Outcomes were 11,4862, All negative. Currently, Qingdao has developed and started the full staff testing program, It is expected that within 3 days, full coverage will be provided to the five districts of south, north, Li Cang, Laoshan and Chengyang, Full coverage of citywide testing within 5 days, The test results will be released in time.

The source of the Qingdao epidemic is still to be identified. Previously, On 24 September, Qingdao City in Qingdao Port Dagang Company imported cold chain products loading and unloading workers for regular routine testing, Two cases of asymptomatic infection with new coronavirus pneumonia were found. Then 1440 samples were collected covering cold chain products and the environment, Complete nucleic acid detection, A total of 51 positive samples were detected. According to the Health Times, Qingdao Culture and Tourism Bureau monitoring data show, This year's National Day, Mid-Autumn Festival, Qingdao received 4.4758 million visitors, 28 September-8 October, Qingdao Railway Station sent a total of 744000 passengers. 93 A level scenic spots monitored, A total of 2.8273 million visitors, It reached nearly 70% in the same period last year. So where are the more than 4 million passengers from? Health times reporter checks 360 migration map to see, For the period from 26 September to 5 October, The three places with the largest number of people from all over Qingdao are in Shandong Province, Jinan City, Weifang City, Yantai City are three cities. Taiyuan is the city with the largest number of people from other provinces, Qingdao is also in and out of the top 10 cities in the only provincial city.

On the evening of 11 October, Jinan Municipal Party Committee as a whole epidemic prevention and control and economic operation work leading group (headquarters) held a video dispatch meeting to carry out emergency deployment of epidemic prevention and control work. Two nucleic acid tests were carried out on the basis of the requirements of the workers of Qingdao since September 23, 1 serum antibody test (2 nucleic acid test interval 24 hours). From now on, the new workers in Qingdao strictly follow the 1 7"(i.e .2 nucleic acid tests ,1 serum antibody test ,7 days health monitoring) control requirements. 12 October, Yantai CDC also issued a tip, From the city of Qingdao since September 23, Report to your community, In the self-protection of their own to medical institutions or testing institutions for testing. 11 October, Qingdao released the news of three new cases of asymptomatic infection, Shandong Heze Mudan District, Liaoning Dalian City, Liaoning Dandong City, Jilin Province Baicheng City, Jiangxi Ganzhou City and other places have issued reminders "if not necessary, Do not go to Qingdao in the near future ". About the Qingdao epidemic, At 9:00 this morning, Dr. Zhang Wenhong's voice in his personal microblog :" China is more successful because of its early anti-epidemic, At present, there are basically no cases of local transmission nationwide, Even in a local outbreak like Qingdao, can also be obtained by expanding the detection to' dynamic zeroing', To achieve the most cost-effective anti-epidemic effect ."

Although our country has discovered the new crown virus again, but as a Chinese mold maker, we are very confident in our country's control ability, CNMOULDING believe we will control it soon.

 As a precision injection molding company, I would like to say to friends all over the world, rest assured to do business in China, we are very safe here.

More than 84% of South Korean companies support China

  The U.S. Government miscalculated? The chip business lost 20 billion

After the epidemic, global value chains (a division of products) are accelerating restructuring. At that time, global value chain dominance or face change, and the ambitious United States are planning to continue to dominate the global value chain.

 Even under the new global value chain order, South Korean companies will not reduce their trading cooperation with Chinese companies, according to a poll. Eighty-four.3 percent of the companies surveyed said they would maintain or expand business with Chinese companies.

In fact, the formation of a global industrial value chain is the inevitable result of economic development, it is difficult for Korean enterprises not to cooperate with China. And the current U.S. foreign restrictions on-chip exports are thus undermining the global chip industry chain supply security. This means that in the future, companies in other countries are likely to avoid restructuring new supply chains to reduce supply risks.

 At present, the American chip industry is suffering from "anti-macrophage ". In April, the international semiconductor association, which represents America's semiconductor interests, warned that if u.s. restricted exports of chips and related technologies, it would lose $20 billion a year in its "chip business ". Predictably, the United States is likely to gradually lose its sense of existence in the global chip industry chain.

On the contrary, the presence of Chinese enterprises in the global supply chain is becoming stronger and stronger. The Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Institute of Global value chain point out that Chinese enterprises have become one of the core nodes and key links in the global supply chain, but there is still a certain distance from the global dominant position. In the future, China will promote the construction of a China-led global value chain in two ways, Xinhua reported on September 22.

First, cultivate industry leaders and create a Chinese enterprise-led industrial chain. Huawei, for example, as the world's top 5 G technology leader, can drive a group of 5 industry suppliers. Second, Chinese enterprises are deeply embedded in the global supply chain, so that the world can not be separated from Chinese manufacturing, thus establishing the leading position of Chinese enterprises in the global value chain.
